Saturday arrived sooner than Kieran had expected.The weather that morning was quite clear. The sun had only been up for a few hours when Kieran was already at the office as usual.However, unlike other days, this time a simple black backpack sat beside his chair. He had prepared everything several days ago.The previous week, he had requested two days off from the café owner where he worked so that he would not have to come in during this weekend. It had not been difficult to get approval because his performance over the past few weeks had been quite good.On the other hand, Irene had also been informed.Of course, not with the real reason.Kieran had only said that he would be staying over at Ron's house to study and work on some school assignments.At first, Irene had looked a little surprised that her son suddenly had a close enough friend to study and even stay overnight with.But in the end, she did not ask many questions.After everything that had happened recently, seeing Kier

Without wasting any time, Darius continued, "At first, our boss was still willing to wait, but this time the situation is different."Kieran's eyes narrowed slightly as impatience grew in his heart."Different how?"This time, the second man who had remained silent all along finally spoke."Because our Madam is not very patient."Irene's fingers immediately stiffened the moment she heard the word Madam from the man's mouth. What was happening now only proved that her fears had become reality.Irene froze. Completely froze. The color drained from her face.That reaction did not escape Kieran's notice. His gaze immediately shifted to his mother, and he saw genuine fear on the woman's face. Not worry, not anxiety, but real fear.Darius seemed to realize that he had already said too much. He slowly stood up."We've delivered our message."He straightened his suit, then placed a business card on the table."Seven days. Before we come back, please use that time wisely."After saying that, t

Kieran's steps remained calm as he entered the residential area where he lived. The orange glow of the afternoon slowly covered the streets, which were becoming increasingly crowded with people returning from work.Throughout the journey, his mind was still occupied with several things, and then just as he turned onto the road leading to his house, that familiar voice suddenly sounded.[Ding!]Kieran did not stop walking, but his eyes narrowed slightly.[Abnormal situation detected around Host's residence.][Preliminary analysis indicates a 73% probability of conflict.]Kieran continued walking as usual while speaking to the System."Explain."[Two unidentified individuals detec

Kieran did not think much about what happened on the field afterward. At least, that was what he told himself.However, when the final class ended and he was walking home alone, the image of Cyanna suddenly appearing with a drink crossed his mind again.None of it made sense. It was all too strange.What bothered him the most was that he did not understand her purpose.Usually, every action had a motive whether for profit, personal interests, or some other objective. But in Cyanna's case, he saw nothing.First, he was not a genius student. Even if his grades improved, it was not enough to place him in the top fifty of the entire school. He was not rich either, nor did he have an outstanding family background. As for his other advantages, very few people knew about that side of him.That was why, after walking in silence for several minutes, he finally spoke in his mind."System, what do you think her motive is?"[Target: Cyanna?]"Yes."The System fell silent for a moment as if conduc

The following days passed much more peacefully than before.The cheating accusations gradually disappeared from everyday conversations. There were still a few people who brought them up from time to time, but most students had already lost interest.After all, schools always had new gossip every week. Moreover, there were far too many other interesting things to talk about lately.For example, Franky Hogarth, or several students who had suddenly disappeared from school after the bullying case was exposed.But none of that affected Kieran's life very much. His routine remained the same: go to school, study, then go home.Occasionally stop by the office.Then repeat it all again the next day.If there was one thing that had changed, it was probably the attitude of the people around him."Kieran, what method did you use for question seven?""Kieran, let me borrow your notes for a moment.""Hey, what was the answer to yesterday's physics assignment?"At first it was only one or two people

The atmosphere around the table was still fairly quiet, but dozens of pairs of eyes were secretly watching them. Even several students eating at other tables seemed to have put their conversations on hold.Kieran looked at the girl standing beside his table for several seconds.Around them, the cafeteria gradually grew quieter, yet he seemed completely unaware of it."Excuse me, are you talking to me?"The girl frowned slightly. However, instead of looking annoyed, the expression only made her stand out even more."Yes, I'm talking to you, Kieran.""Ah..."Kieran searched through the original owner's memories of this body, then through his own memories. But there was still no result.In the end, he simply asked, "...Who are you?"That sentence immediately caused a much bigger reaction than the girl's arrival itself."Huh? Is he serious?""Kieran, there's no way he doesn't know who the goddess is, right? He's just pretending to get her attention!"Several students immediately exchanged
